Heartland

Any news ? how he's doing ?
There's no spirit in and of HL without him.
thanks for any infos.

I miss him too.

I think (or at least hope) that he'll be back.

Good old James is bbq-ing on the patio and locked himself out!

but nothing confirmed ? wot's that ? James turned TSOM, only speculations no facts ?

in answer to your question... YUUUUUUUUP

The lure of Storage Wars is greater than Heartland

Who?

Last seen hurling lobsters around.

Or was it a super-squirter

I thought clams

No definitely lobsters...

He's fine and enjoying the life outside HL as far as I know.

IZ.

He did n't seem that happy here the last few months.....

come back, james, come back...

Then it's for the best he left.

I hope he's well. Always liked that curmudgeonly old bastard.

Well isn't it strange who turns up on a day like this?
I wondered the same thing recently, having read about the troubles that struck Blast!ville a while ago, so I dug through piles of pieces of paper and and called the FOF fae Glesga.

In a nutshell, he's not dancing on the tables, but things are getting along.
But don't hold your breath for him to reappear around here.

By the way, Blasty, who art, as I, undoubtedly lurking this place for sure occasionally, I was glad to hear things didn't go for the worst case scenario. I guess you know why. If not, the guessing is up to you.

I look forward to hopefully see some of my old HL pals in Collogne, if I am happy enough to still get a ticket.

Damn, I have become one of those weirdo ex-frequent posters who will crawl from their remote ends of the shelves here and there to sound so much insider..
I beg your forgivenesses.

Cheers!

Unkle Jam~es contacted with me through this forum, so i got some info. everything is fine now, he seems to be happy living outside HL. I looks that i have to kick my butt to Glesga to but him few pints that i own him for his generosity, everything in time (and money).

Again, I hope he's well. If I'm ever in Glasgow I would like to hoist a few pints with the man. Or he in Texas.

Would be nice to see him around again - maybe QB should install tapatalk so we can enter his iphone at least

I'm late to the party on this conversation, but it may bring someone a hint of joy to know that he still honors humble requests. As stated elsewhere here on HL, I had misplaced my copy of the Longfolk cd (and had a noose ready). I wrote to JR through his website and he kindly sent the tracks by email AND included a song called "Manhatten Smile" which imported in my iTunes as a 25men track from an album called "Songs for Old Men". It is VERY much like a Longfolk track.

Lastly, I recently discovered the Gangwar studio track "Blue Lover" via YouTube and JR's cover of the Recoil song "Faith Healer". I have both tracks as an MP3 and continue pondered their origin, and if other such hidden gems will one day appear. I welcome a Blasted response or any other Overbomber insight.

You sure you're talking about the same James?
Still, every news of Eric is good news (I heard some good things about him a few weeks ago that made me happy), so nice to hear he's still promoting his Longfolk work. I love that stuff!
Anyway, Blue Lover is from the Third Generation album: http://www.discogs.com/James-Rays-Gangw ... ter/140973
That Manhatten Smile song you talk about I don't think I know...

Thanks, Radio... I have the actual disc of Third Gen but apparently it was not imported with the rest of hte tracks into my iTunes... so its like a hidden gem discovered late. Thanks for pointing that out.

The Manhatten Smile track (yes, it is spelled that way) is a slow-beat, acoustic based track with harmonica, strumming guitar and drums... add in a echoey guitar and JR's perfect whispered lyrics of love and you have a Smile to enjoy. Lyrics begin with "if you can make me feel better, if you can make me feel tall, if you can love me when I hate you, if you could love me at all..."

This thread is about Herr Blast. Thanks for the confusion.

GEEZ... now I'm confused! My first reference was to Longfolk and "JR", then 25Men and Gangwar. (I know his name is Eric, but I respect any moniker.... you may call me Doctor OR Docktor Now I'm not sure if I joined the right conversation or not

Some news from either "James" is always welcome ... ...

As to James Ray, on this MySpace Page one can listen to The Otherfolk - Between Those States Of Mind ...


EDIT:
I wasn't aware of these Longfolks/Otherfolks things ... should make some note in the Wiki ... ...

definitely the wrong conversation, but that's no problem man. As I said before, any talk about JR is good talk in my book

That Manhatten smile song sounds like a real good one. Am very curious to hear it.

'Our' James did do some artwork for JR/25men, didn't he?
